I've been texting back and forth for a few days with this girl I hooked up with a while back. I texted her Monday afternoon (she's not a phone call kind of person) to see if she was up for drinks Monday night, and after a little back and forth, she was game (this part was actually fairly successful). Later Monday evening before she got off of work, she texted me to see if we could reschedule for Tuesday night:
"Ah! Can we do tomorrow night!? :) Had some peeps cancel and now I need to cover the early shift! :("
Here's where I went wrong, this was definitely a shit test which I failed. I agreed to reschedule for tonight (Tuesday), and told her I'd pick her up at a certain time:
"That sucks! Sure, let's do it. I'll head your way at 7:00."
I didn't get a response to that message, but didn't really think anything of it. Flash forward to this morning (Tuesday), I get a FB message from a family member (I hate everything about FB, but have it to keep in touch with immediate family out of the country), and lo and behold, this girl's status message pops up on my feed, "Work this afternoon, then hanging out with [Not Me]!"
I haven't actually got a cancellation from her yet, but I'm not planning on heading anywhere this evening. I'll shoot here a text later letting her know I'm heading her way, and we'll see what happens.
Otherwise, I'm chalking it up as a lesson learned: never be too available, and moving on to the next one.
TL;DR: Failed shit-test via text, moving on.
Edit 1: Clarified.
Edit 2: Went about my business tonight: had an amazing workout followed by some time in the whirlpool, going to a spot around the corner to get some work done for a bit. To all of you who suggested moving on, it's already out of mind. Next!
Thanks Seddit.
